Turkey bans Blogger

As of Thursday, anyone in Turkey trying to access either Blogger or any blogspot.com domain will be presented with a screen informing them (via) that “Access to this website has been suspended in accordance with decision 2008/2761 of T.R. Diyarbakir 1st Criminal Court of Peace.”

It is suspected that the reason for this has something to do with Muslim creationist, Adnan Oktar. Oktar has a history of bringing legal action against his online critics, including forcing the closure of Ateizm.org and convincing a Turkish court to block internet access to both WordPress.com and RichardDawkins.net.
